Okay, Tidas. Today
I have a privilege and honor to to bring
in a very very dear friend of mine. We
did
we were neighbors neighbors. So we don't
deny shield.
Yeah. My wife more than I. Yeah.
>> His wife more than him.
Healing
marriage.
Baltimore. So this this is a
unbelievable song. Unbelievable song. So
creative Z smart unbelievable energy.
>> Wow. Thank you
energy. And what happened was a few
weeks ago
I was looking for healing
from my friend
office and I said you know what let me
see what you do. I was so impressed and
I decided
types of healing is understanding
knowledge psychology
marriage
healing
besides him being a very very humble
person
um mentioned
truck
drivers
This is where it is.
This is what it is.
Andel is a healer and that's why I chose
you. There's hundreds of people out
there, thousands of people that are
helping and doing. I always feel that
introduce you guys going to get to see.
>> Wow. I'm humbled. Now serious if Ellie
Tratel walks into a room everybody feels
light. It's a certain calmness.
So Ellie,
>> thank you. [laughter]
>> No further ado.
>> I'm humbled. I'm humbled. I I have no I
have no words. I have nothing to add and
I'm humbled by how you uh how you see
me. Thank you.
>> That that's how I see you and and and I
think that that's you know. Okay. So
let's get jump into it right away.
>> Please.
>> You were trained in many different
things. You're doing a lot of things.
What is it that you're doing the most
lately? What is what is it that you're
doing and why do you feel it is the
right thing for you to do now?
>> Wow. Okay. Good question. So,
basically what I I I've I've trained
like you said, I've trained in many
things and I the more I train at one
point I was just training and training.
I was trying to like in my mind like the
more I know and the more modalities I
know, the more I learn, the more I'll be
able to help people.
>> And the more I get into it, the more I
realize that it's not learning more.
It's not learning other modalities. It's
it's learning how to stay out of it.
Learning how to just become that support
system and allow a person to be so
themselves while sitting with me that
they they learn a new side to
themselves. They learn a side themselves
that again some are going to argue that
they're they learn
without any blockages. They learn to be
in that place of with no judgment. So
they learned such a part of themselves
that automatically that that brings
healing.
>> Wow.
>> So
>> people are scared to be with themselves
sometimes, right? Why is that?
>> Yeah. Yeah. It's because we were hurt
being ourselves to be themselves and
then they come to you and one of the
things is they feel they're able to be
what?
>> Yeah. They're able to be themselves with
void of judgment. Zero judgment. They're
able to be themselves without, you know,
many times people come into therapies
like, "Can you heal me? Can you fix me?
I'm broken." Like the messages that
they're coming with, "I'm broken. Fix
me. Fix the brokenness."
>> That's not what it is. That's not what
it is. I I don't fix anybody. I don't
heal anybody. I just support them. I I I
step out of it. I be that safe person
for them so that they can be themselves.
And through that comes healing.
>> Wow.
>> Yeah.
H I feel you know calm being around you.
There is something there. I I I I I
[clears throat and snorts]
believe that someone doesn't judge. If
you don't judge, as you said before, the
other person is able to be themselves.
We're being so judged in our
communities. Every community, every
culture has their own little nuances.
>> Yeah.
>> But we know our communities. It's not
not to say that our community is worse
than others. We're better than all the
other. Just to bring out this point.
>> Yeah.
that if you want to bring someone back
to Yiddish someone asked him like what
do I do my child is he said just love
him and he said what just love him even
more don't judge and that's how they're
going to connect to you that's going to
start being themselves and they're going
to self-reflect and see where am I up to
in life and that's going to help them
heal so judging is the opposite of
healing
>> wow
>> yeah and it's it's it's a little deeper
it's one one step deeper. And this is
part of what I'm still working to do.
Like just just so people realize,
>> when you're coming for somebody to help,
you're not coming to a perfect person,
somebody that figured it all out yet.
>> Like I'm I'm far from far from having
figured everything out or even enough
out to even to be to even where I want
to be. But coming to a person that's
sort of learning to accept himself,
>> learning to take away that judgment from
himself will allow the person that's
coming to also not feel that judgment.
>> So you're saying you're you're bringing
up judgment. I just want you to
>> I got it.
>> Yeah.
>> So not only I feel unjudged, I don't
feel judged at all.
>> I feel embraced. I feel I stop judging
myself. And that's where the healing
comes from.
>> Exactly. And the more I learn to be okay
with who I am, the more I'm I I learn to
be okay with just being myself exactly
the way I am, the more the the more the
the the client or whoever is coming to
me can heal. There many times when Bkham
come to me and they and I see that
they're just they're not able to open
up. They're not able to get they're
looking around. They're feeling very
very uneasy, unsafe.
>> The first thing I always tell my clients
the first time they come and I say look
around the room, you know, like I point
I want them to become okay and
comfortable with their with their
surroundings. And then the next thing I
start doing is I start acting very like
extremely comfortable. I put my foot
over my armrest. I make I open up a
thing. I I take a drink.
>> I want them to start feeling like like
look, I'm not I'm not this like rigid
guy professor like type of therapist
like like we're friends. We're good.
Like I'm comfortable. The more
comfortable I become being myself, the
more comfortable they are to open up. So
that's
>> beautiful. And and I feel even deeper
that the fact that you're saying that
you're not completely there. is still
working and that they feel that also
>> for sure
>> and when you feel that your healer is
still healing
you know I think that in itself is like
let's be real it's like when we grew up
when I grew up with little kids parents
were were perfect and because they felt
that this is the way we're going to
respect them more respect as but I tell
my kids when I make a mistake and I
apologize and I own up first of all
>> you know because and and second it's
helping them deal with their stuff.
They're going to know, oh, you're
allowed to own up. You're allowed to say
I'm sorry. You're allowed to, you know,
this this this is the goal. This is the
idea. So, he's saying healing
me. So,
one time trauma
long-term trauma like a complex trauma.
The way I call it
taught me it's called complex traumas
and and she told me that
she was the shortest family like
I'm never going to make it like
so this is
you
So, so that's complex trauma. I can feel
like you know I'm nothing. I'm never
going to make it anyway
and I feel
[sighs]
what do you do
>> to someone that has complex trauma?
>> Yeah. Yeah. So, so it's these two words
to it is complex trauma and I I know it
as developmental trauma.
>> Developmental trauma.
>> Developmental trauma which is the same
it's the same thing. It's it's little
T's. It's it's a a small and and steady
trauma. Right.
>> So, so the the and the hardship with
complex trauma is that when we have a
trauma, when somebody gets into a car
accident,
>> they have that actual image in their
mind, a feeling in their mind, they have
a a story in their mind that happened,
>> right? And that is the trauma. That's
what we're working to get to,
>> right?
>> And we're working to get to before that
trauma was. So, the idea of of of the
way we deal with trauma, and I call it a
bad word. I always tell my clients like,
I'm going to say a bad word and and I
say trauma. And the reason why I say
it's a bad word because we throw it
around very flippantly. It's like, yeah,
but but trauma, regular trauma, a car
accident is
>> we know what life was normal beforehand,
>> right? The trauma shook the reality, the
safety that we knew life to be in,
>> right?
>> And it's sort of and it's sort of from
there on we just kept on looking over
our shoulders. We don't want to drive a
car. Whatever the the the accommodations
that we give ourselves after that trauma
to to keep us safe,
>> but we know what it used to be like. We
know what life was beforehand. Complex
trauma. And the reason why it's so
complex is because you have nothing to
pinpoint. You don't know what life
>> exactly. You don't even know. You don't
have a a point of reference to move back
to
>> Exactly.
>> Right. You know,
>> and then life is given. So when they get
out of their abuse, they know what life
was. But I was going to abuse by Muslims
I abused other whatever it was. Then
they don't have a point of reference. Is
that what you're saying?
>> Yeah. They don't have a point of
reference. They don't have they don't
have a point of what normal looks like.
So it's very complex. It's very hard.
You want to teach them
ice cream. I know it tastes
safety regulation
>> right I was thinking that you know I was
trained you know lifeline by Dr. Fox
from California rabbi Dr.
So he trained us in for many years I'm
doing this and we go down to the crisis
intervention project lifeline
accident the a suicide in the family and
we have to know let know the parents at
the child or the child of the parent.
So, Hashem gave me one of these jobs and
>> it's still like you said, people had
normal life before and we were trained
how to how to let you know how to give
it to them in a way that should be able
to trauma forever. The way it's given
over the first few minutes makes the
whole difference. But complex trauma
seems like it's not a trauma at all.
scared. We are not scared. And then
decisions, you know, impulsive fight
and and people for say that
was done every single day to you or very
often and then it becomes part of you
and you don't have a point of reference
to look back and say this was normal
this is not normal
>> right yeah
>> wow
>> so it's hard yeah it's not it's harder
but not only is it harder it's also
harder because people minimize it it's
like
>> what I went through you know what that
guy went through that guy whatever you
know it's like it's like it's minimized
like okay I had a normal
as complex trauma de developmental
trauma we call it is much worse than
than a sudden
>> it's harder it's harder so worse worse
is hard to say but it's it's much it's
harder to it's hard
>> to recognize we have that problem
>> yes
>> that that it's that it's blocking me
>> and to and and it's harder to fix
meaning the deter I'm going to ask you
something that's a little controversial
that's controversial controversial means
in my my definition
but it's just uncomfortable Just because
lack of words.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
>> How about religious trauma?
>> Religious trauma.
within the audience.
Why? Why did that happen? And how can we
help them fix it?
Wrong image of the
wrong image of of the
wrong image of the
basics.
It's probably going to come out after
you, [snorts] but just to say that
direct
indirect.
So, uh I I adapted
So I would say a huge chunk of
so yeah
both not here anymore.
>> Yeah. And yeah, I had to see him every
Sunday.
>> So he gave you a very beautiful.
So I was 15 years old. I was I was a
young kid. To be honest, I regret not
having known what we had over there.
>> You don't know the wealth the the worth
of water till the well is dry.
>> I just if I have to choose anything from
and it might not be exactly what you're
looking, but
>> it was his humbleness.
>> It was it wasn't normal. Him and his
son. I was a ninth grader. I was coming
from I had no idea it was good like so I
I came and I saw them. I waved. They
always waved back. I hopped on me
afterwards like hello the little there
was wave stuff you know like and I see
everybody. It took me time to realize
that you nod with your head but in the
beginning I used to wave like I see them
like hello like they always made to
notice me. I felt I felt very yeah I
felt very
>> felt seen. I felt seen the the
humbleness the humbleness will if
there's anything that I'm going to take
with the rest of my life is the
simpleness and humbleness from from
these these
trauma
leader the so-called leader was the
leader is
yeah
>> unfortunately
control
because because
you know
It never went his head.
Beautiful.
>> So beautiful.
>> So this is probably what you're doing in
your in your therapy which we'll get
back there. But that's what you felt by
that.
So So let's go back to this
>> the religious you
>> the religious trauma.
>> So so rel religious trauma is obviously
a complex trauma, right? It's a it's a
it's a developmental trauma. It's not
one story. For some people unfortunately
it's both because there are stories also
that so un unfortunately but
>> [laughter]
>> massive.
He was he felt like he won the lottery.
Was very good. [clears throat]
Foreign
speech. Foreign speech.
Obviously
obviously
it's just an example
from the window. Obviously
this is just [snorts]
this came to my mind recently.
[clears throat]
>> Yeah.
>> Has nothing. This story has nothing to
do with this is a trauma.
The trauma was
>> and he told me it was over. Of course
that was over for him. He never learned
again. Of course.
So real trauma. Yeah.
Family.
Hello. [laughter]
Followers from the listeners.
So,
what could you as a miller
tell people that come to you
religious trauma
to really mean it and see it after all
that trauma? Do you mention anything of
that while you're healing the trauma or
that comes later? first to heal them.
>> I know I'm asking a few questions, but I
want I want you to take the mic. How do
you see this whole thing?
>> It's very good. F firstly, firstly, we
don't heal anybody. Um, we we support
them where they are. Secondly, secondly,
none of these religious trauma. So,
people say religious trauma, religious
OCD, religious. Okay. So, I end up
dealing with a lot of OCD because OCD
like through religion is probably the
the primary way of OCD, right? Very
obsessive.
Yeah, sure. Sure.
You know, very
valuable.
[clears throat]
So
certain situations we had. So he
mentioned in the middle we talk about
that
he was doubting.
He told me he recorded it
like
Yeah.
I love it.
>> But anyway, so so in in religious trauma
is do OCD.
Sure. Sure. OCD OCD anxiety a lot of
these things. Okay. So so what what what
is what is what is the idea of how do
these things happen? Right. The way I
see it again and this is all just the
way I see it obviously if I might be
wrong
there's a there's a lot of fear that
came the last few generations extreme
extreme fears and when we're fearing
something we're afraid of some what we
try to do is try to control so that we
don't go back to we're to whatever it is
that hurt us whatever it is that we're
afraid of
>> and the easiest and simplest way for us
to control is unfortunately through
religion
>> [laughter]
>> So we're we're using when you use
religion as a means to control
this that's where all these issues are
going to be coming out
>> because you're not it's not the
religion.
Let's just use it.
Right. So,
right.
Right.
Exactly. Exactly. So, so what does fear
do?
Okay.
Nobody's going to step out of the line.
And we go and unfortunately we do add
things and we do keep in order to keep
people in check, keep people in line. So
exact whatever it is you know you know
again religion is the religion is nor
the means of controlling fear
>> right. So
their religion being the means of
controlling to be to to stay in check to
stay where they are.
>> Automatically religion is going to come
across
>> as a way of fear as a way of that's
going to make you anxious as a way of if
I don't do it perfectly right somebody's
going to come down and and and hurt me
and that that causes all these anxieties
OCDs and everything. So I don't think
when when they that's been a religious
trauma or the religious OCD or the
religious none of these things had
anything to do with religion they had
nothing to do with the mugandid it had
to do with a traumatized parent
>> not getting the help that he needed
continuing that pattern of traumatizing
his his children. So that's the way I
see it and when we talk about
transforming touch we talk about
regulating the nervous system that that
is exactly what the magic is that okay
so so the next is what exactly is the
method that you're using what is the
name of it
>> of this the last the the the the main
therapy that you're doing now these days
I'm not talking about everything else
you learn
>> and and also I want to know which ages
you you work with and okay continue so
what's highest
>> okay good Could you put a divider
and could you put a divider in
like like the religion thing it'll
answer a lot answer a lot of what you
you want to understand because religion
really
>> sure
>> yeah okay so the the
okay so the modality that I do was were
created by Dr. Steven Terrell
>> from Austin, Texas. Come Austin in
Texas. Okay. And um as
an incredible way
um a gentle soul, he created something
called transforming touching
transforming touch
>> because used to be transforming the
experience-based brain. They changed it.
They're transforming touch. Um and the
idea the concept of transforming touch
is regulating the nervous system.
>> Who says regulating the nervous system?
>> The nervous system.
So again
just
the nervous system is basically the
brain
and do a bunch of nerve endings.
Basically all of the organs within the
body
>> physical nerve.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Basically the control board
the control board of your body field is
is that part
the field
the so the nervous system is apart from
the nervous system
when when the the trauma Trauma mind
nish feel unsafe unsafety the feeling of
unsafety is trauma trauma is unsafe for
whatever reason I don't feel safe right
somebody gets into a car accident
[gasps]
right these are unsafety and he
continuously replays that unsafety and
he he he builds accommodations for that
and yeah and that's why complex trauma
is a constant feeling of unsafety
>> like you continuously you live your life
consistent
when when like when
I get the mood Right?
It's it's it's a constant state of
unsafety.
>> And what it does to your nervous system
is it disregulates it.
>> And the reason why is I'll tell you
there's something called Hashem made an
incredible incredible response that our
body that our body goes into whenever we
feel unsafe,
>> whenever we have this trauma happening
and it's called the fight orflight
response
>> and the concept, it's a genius.
when this is like in a genius genius way
of like we do supernatural superhuman
things in order to keep us safe right
there's no way you could do about it the
guy and you're done right Hashem made
you go into this fight or flight you can
actually fight or run away and you can
succeed I'm not saying I'm not putting
you up against the line now but I'm I'm
talking about in general
>> right
>> so how does that work there's a a part
of the brain the lyic system the big it
it checks out a whole time am Am I safe?
Am I safe? Am I safe? Yeah, that's
basically I'm I'm saying it conceptually
scientifically. Am I safe?
>> And the second it picks up unsafety,
>> it sends a message to the adrenal glands
because
the adrenal glands on top of the need on
top of the kidneys right over here
behind where the rib cages ends over in
the back right there. It's adrenal
gland. The gland
message adrenal gland. Uh-oh. Danger.
Danger. What's this? It dumps something
called epinephrine and cortisol into the
blood. It's why it's sorry hormones.
Epinephrine is the quick and easy the
the twigs in the fire. And the cortisol
is the logs. I'm telling you, what's it
called? What's it's
the second to do cortisol in the blit
the ga body react cortisol.
the organ when the when cortisol is in
the blit the heart starts pumping
quickly right to circulate the blood
better the lungs open expand wider and
also quicker
>> you find yourself needing to take deep
breaths right the moto million miles I
mean whatever I'm exaggerating but very
fast
>> the the hands and the feet get a lot of
blood flow and it starts tensing up,
right?
>> And these are all the things the pupils
dilate. These are all the things that
happen and the digestive system slows
down also because
backaches
I guess the same idea just body
>> everybody Yeah. Every everybody's body
is different. Everybody reacts
differently and I don't know exactly but
but the idea
I'll tell you in a second. And these are
the things that happen. And this
automatically
puts us into what we call fight or
flight. And it's meant for then
to get out of there or to be able to
fight to be able to survive that that
trauma that that experience.
>> The problem in and when I say all these
the reason why
feelings because people all of a sudden
thinking, wait, I'm in it.
>> I live my life. My heart is pumping.
[gasps] I can't say take deep breaths.
my hands and feet that always clench the
clothes like all these why do I feel all
these things like
why why do I feel this
>> and that's and that and the reason is is
because there's something called
developmental trauma complex trauma
>> and what complex trauma is is like we
said before it's a lowgrade fight or
flight so mention
never getting the message
>> how does it look like for the audience
at a low level fulltime complex trauma.
It is
uncomfortable
fight
constantly uncomfortable
nervous system.
The amygdala is normal. The amigdala is
the part in the brain was was needs the
five senses. The check
is second
complex trauma 27 times per second.
You know,
victims of bullying, vict There's a
molester
con you always business
trauma victims
to is like on high alert.
>> So, so continue. So, how do you heal
that? And the amigdala turns on
system. Yeah. And it puts your ner puts
your nervous system in a constant state
of fight or flight. Almost fightive,
right?
>> So, we need to get over that.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> So, how do we do that?
>> Some people
and some people just check out please.
They disassociate what whatever the the
accommodation that you're using the idea
of it is I'm not safe in my body
audience
fights [clears throat]
psychology
but
you know so the animal brain the part of
the brain other other guy facing the
problem. The problem
was a fight.
You're running away.
Yeah.
flight in a fight is frozen but
go ahead.
>> Right. Right.
None of these things extreme.
He's disassociating. He's in freeze.
He's so again.
So, okay. So, so first I get the
question. So, so how do you how do you
get out of that? How do you how do you
like fix right fix is the wrong word
fix.
>> How do you help them heal themselves?
>> Yeah. How do you so the emphasis how do
you make them feel safe? How do you get
the message this nervous system to a
place of regulation? How do you make
them feel safe again? Like
exactly.
>> Exactly. So, so it's in a in a a safe
room,
right? But so, for some reason, if I'm
in fight or flight,
I I know I'm safe. My head knows I'm
safe. Why Why don't I feel safe? Why
don't I feel
>> rest and digest? Why don't I feel
relaxed?
>> Just relax.
>> Yeah. And the answer is because your
nervous system, your mind knows, okay,
fine. You say, but your nervous system
never got the message. Relax.
I never got the message. So how do you
give it that message?
>> How do you give the message?
>> You teach the body safety.
>> You teach the body safety. You teach the
person safety. You help them start
tasting what safety feels like. The
blind meno
they you start showing them like this is
what safety could feel like. And you
can't do it alone. If a person was hurt
by another person, they can't teach
themselves safety themselves. They
needed to be through somebody that could
prove to them
>> and that is how you teach them slowly
integrating.
>> So the self
transformational touch
>> transforming touch. Yeah. So
practitioner
[snorts]
system
was getting this space and as a as a
role model consciously subconsciously as
more or less regulated
system that's that's what I feel that's
why I sent people to you I I I think
that
again
But
>> you're a very regulated person.
>> I say I I know you long enough.
>> Thank you.
>> And and that's [snorts] why I feel
guy
therapist
on ABC's.
>> I want I want to know how does his life
look like?
>> Yeah, you know,
no. [laughter]
>> Yeah, they try. I can tell you they do.
So, so I know you and all the people
that are being interviewed on this
podcast is only
the mench,
you know,
so I don't know this. It's the person
that's sitting in front of you, you
know.
University
class 8week class
pictures from the long
statistics
mention Of course, stop smoking.
mention.
So my question that I always have to
myself is
adults is
smoking
and teacher was get the class.
You know,
twothirds of therapist
And it's so true. I know
the knowledge experience,
you know,
teaches.
And I believe this is
that a person that goes
to transformational touch
I didn't end up going more. I'm going to
come.
I felt [clears throat] like a different
person.
45 minutes
office, beautiful office. And I stood up
from there and I said, I am getting on
my podcast.
>> Mhm.
>> Because it's you that's healing. Of
course
I want you know but it's it's the
healer. So if the healer is a regulated
person
you can only heal as far as you've come.
Maybe even most of the time. Some of the
time for sure. maybe even most of the
time. It's against this transforming
touch. I just want to I just want to
like sort of
mention
that are not they're not they're not
regulated. They're not regulated the way
they want to be. They want to be they're
working towards it.
And I think that's the most important
and that's why I'm saying
>> they're not regulated the way they want
to be. They're not holding where they
want to be holding yet. They still want
they want to get to they they they have
a long way to go. They they've they're
in a lot of pain. They have a long way
to go, but they're such safe and good
practitioners.
>> They're so safe. They can take a person
could could be could be when they not
could be when they're going to be more
regulated, they'll do even do even a
better job. There's no question about
it. I agree.
>> But just because you hear of a
transforming touch practitioner and you
don't feel like they're as regulated as
you want them to be, they might they
might still be very practitioner. So
I'll tell you why. I'll tell you why.
I'll tell you why. Because for the same
reason
>> I'm okay with that.
>> The same reason transforming the most
most of what I'm training myself now to
do is how to not fix how to not how to
sort of stay stay outside of it and be
able to help you where you are. Like the
same reason that's the same reason
transforming touch could help so much
because it's not the practitioner is not
fixing. practitioners just has to be
safe.
>> But but but it's vibes.
>> Okay. I'm not I'm not arguing with
everything you're saying. I'm not saying
it's wrong.
It's a grain of
as
that
practition
to regulate
and as a person
I'm okay with that. Yeah. Yeah. So they
said I'm just saying
over you know
it just doesn't work. It's like that
teacher from from the smoking.
>> Yeah. They I'm just saying it because
people might know a thing and they're
going to pass and whatever don't don't
be so quick to judge it. They are very
good people good practitioners that are
safe people.
>> And so the so how do you how do you
teach the body safety? How do you train
the body safety?
>> So the answer is first of all being a
safe person. That's the first answer.
Being a safe person when they come into
me.
Me not trying to fix them. Me letting
them know that they're perfect exactly
the way they are and I can support them
where they are. Me letting them know
before I touch them, telling them
exactly what I'm going to do,
>> exactly what it does and before asking
permission before I touch them. So the
difference between the touch that I do
in um in in in session and the touch
that these people are afraid of
>> is that it's safe touch.
>> It's safe touch. The touch they've
gotten that they're afraid of was touch
that hurt them was touch that that that
that felt painful felt violating
>> even if it wasn't touch that hurt them.
>> People some people then then they're
probably not as sensitive to touch and
they're okay. But there's there's a
there's a there's a
there's something that they're
associating touch with that they're
afraid of, that they're uncomfortable
with.
>> And the touch that we do is is safe.
It's regulating. And it's not invasive.
It's not violating like the touch was
there, which is why it could be so
healing for people that are afraid of
touch. And I I don't want to say stories
on anything, but I can tell you stories
like
>> Yeah. Real really really people really
go to healing places with with um with
transforming touch.
>> Amazing.
>> Yeah. And I so so how does it work taka?
So after asking permission I I support
the nervous system in the same way that
it went into that fight and flight the
same way that it went into that scary
place of like oh no I need to protect
myself because I'm not safe
>> that's that's through that method Dr.
Steven Terrell taught us to support the
nervous system letting you know that
it's safe
>> bringing us out of fight or flight
>> and go into regulation. How long is a is
know it's like typical question people
always ask
>> how do you answer that you know
obviously you know but the question I'm
still going to ask like what what what
is what how does the process look like
well
you know I started seeing people 18 19
years ago psychoanalysis psychist
therapist mortgage.
>> Yeah.
traumatized
and
so
again
mentioned although he's he's a therapist
he's a therapist
and and
that really meaning
so so
that
They just come there and they just live
in that space. You touch them obviously
in safe
>> support them
and they start healing themselves. Their
their body starts feeling safe and then
it doesn't matter anymore of the trauma.
>> Yeah.
>> That's the beautiful part from this.
>> Yeah.
>> Wow.
>> So yeah. So people do ask I get I get
asked that question. I I don't know if
every single person askked me that
question, but definitely most people ask
me that question. So So how long does it
take? What's the process? What am I
going to see? What am I going to feel?
>> And I I often say I often tell them that
and and some of them even ask some of
them come and they feel like or or they
hear from somebody else how amazing like
so they ask me can can I want I need
emergency two times a week and they want
to set themselves up. I I slow them down
and I say that keep in mind you're not
going to heal the anxiety and the stress
and and this this these symptoms this
this not regulated state
>> by by the same the same way that you got
yourself into it. You got yourself into
this stress and anxiety anxious place by
rushing rushing rushing everything
needing to think 10 steps ahead to keep
yourself safe. So you're going to get
there by slowing down by slowing down.
So no I'm not going to see you two times
a week. Let's let's see let's come come
in for thing. Let's see we'll see you
once a week maybe. Like that's that's
the first thing is to slow people down
like letting them know how it goes.
>> The second thing is
talk therapy and all these other other
modalities that that go deeper and
deeper and deeper or or could take you
further and further like these these are
wonderful and beautiful things and I I'm
going to tell you because you said it
already. Most of my clients come through
therapists. It's word of mouth and
therapists. Most of them come through
therapists. Why? Because these are
people that are doing the work and
they're trying and they're trying and
for some reason this this for some
reason allows them to slow down, feel
safe enough to go to places they weren't
able to go to without this.
>> It lets them It lets them slow down and
and just things that they were blocking
because they needed to keep themselves
safe, so they blocked it.
>> They allow these things to come out.
Exactly. Allow it to come out and slowly
at your body's pace. Nobody's forcing
anything. We're not rushing. We're not
rushing the process. We're not pushing
the process. It's a very slow slow and
gentle modality. So people ask me how
long how often I I I I often tell them
all this that I'm telling you now and I
tell them so I in the beginning before I
realized that I can't give a number to
it. I used to tell them what my my
teacher Dr. Steven Terrell told said 8
to 12 times um you know like the people
start seeing a life-changing
something change around them. And after
doing this for however [laughter] long
I'm doing this it's it it's not like
that. It's not like that. People people
often don't see the change. They see it
from the people around them. They
themselves don't. Sometimes they don't
even feel a change, but all of a sudden
the wife is just happier with them. The
kids are are calmer. All of the sudden
the bosses had all of a sudden they
could they could tolerate the more.
>> That's real work. That's the real stuff.
That's you know,
you know, like
>> yeah, many people come to me because
they say I don't I don't see much, but
my wife tells me that I'm calmer. I
don't like I'm like okay. Like I hear
this every day like this is it and and
many times many times people come two
three times and and they themselves they
they go walk out feeling just like like
wow they could handle things that they
weren't able to handle. So it's it's
there's no answer.
>> There's no answer because everybody
>> agency working with
>> So my youngest is like I had a had I
worked with a four-year-old a
seven-year-old.
>> Yeah. Most of my clients,
>> exactly. Most of my clients are bim and
I have ying though. So yalat end up
coming in with saying that it's business
issues, but it ends up being like
relationship stuff. Bim, you know what I
mean? Bkarim come in like also
I wouldn't know.
>> Yeah. Bim come in with the anxious.
I only see male. I don't see females.
Yeah.
>> Wow. So it's it's it's like a
it's a revolutionary and and and of
course
vegan was was uncomfortable
>> uh for some people um how to do
so
you know different types of uh forms of
of psychedelics
>> the mushrooms or the MDMA and the alam
So some people tell me,
you know, and
you know,
some people I've seen I don't claim to
be at all. I've seen people that came
and told me,
"Wow, I'm excited to hear it." It's
whatever
healing and and and so I heal through a
lot. I think is one of the main
modalities
fix
whatever the other. So
[sighs] why are people not trying
to just regulate their emotional system?
Why they're running there? They don't
know about it. You don't have to answer
me.
>> I could answer or
>> I could answer I could answer you based
off of the way I see it. Obviously, I
might people might hear it and disagree,
and I I respect that completely, and I'm
not I don't I'm not even a million%
confident with what I'm saying to think
that this is the be all and end all
answer,
>> but I feel like people look for the
quick fix. People look for an easy easy
solution. So, I'll explain. Somebody
that's looking to actually do the work
is going to be taking these substances
differently than somebody that's looking
for a quick fix.
>> People, you can you can disassociate
through any form of healing. Also, you
can totally disregard the healing part
of healing. Also, you can actually do
all go through all the steps, do all
this all everything that you're doing.
>> You didn't integrate it into your into
your day-to-day life. You just went for
a trip for for for a for a
give you awarenesses, but then again
then again listening to podcast give you
awarenesses. Again, this is going to
give you more personal awar. It's
amazing. It could be it's like taking a
Tylenol. It's like it's like it's like
taking surgery. A person that needs it
needs it. A person that doesn't need it.
What do you And these people that go for
Iawasa and the really heavy heavy
medicines the first time
>> unless their unless their life is off
the charts like not they're not they're
not reg like they're not having good
life. Unfortunately a lot of people if
if they're not if their life is like
somewhat in balance they definitely
shouldn't be going for the kill first.
They should try try a little you know
try slowly. I'm not pro, I'm not against
I'm I'm I'm against using it as a means
of discon of disassociating and
disconnecting and not healing. And if
it's if it's done correctly with a
therapist, somebody supporting you
through the process and somebody helping
you with integrating it into your life
>> and doing it right with with with the
right people, support system,
>> it could be very helpful.
>> Oh, could be. You've seen
>> I've se I've seen a lot I've seen a lot
of both sides. I've seen I've seen it
wreck I've seen I've seen really wreck
havoc. I've seen really destroy people's
lives.
>> Unfortunately, two very very close
>> people that I know
>> destroy their lives.
>> Yes. They went straight to Iawaska. It
destroyed their lives.
>> So, no no everything around them also
destroyed. It's very obvious to
everybody that their life change. Nobody
knows that what what was the
>> the reason.
>> So, again, like I said, I'm not pro I'm
not against I'm against using it the
wrong way. Okay.
Situations
but it's a guy made in touch. It's a guy
made it's psychosmatic in a certain
sense like right psycho is the brain and
somatic is the body. So psychosmatic is
is hot it's hot of the press.

But like the set of like the healing
process
>> and this
simple in life and
all is connected.
>> Yeah. I always say going off the exit in
a highway is just one little turn. One
little turn in the beginning but you'll
end up in a totally different place. And
that's what healing is. Healing is not
the sun switch.
>> Yeah, of course.
>> Connection mitzvah is connection.
Healing is connection missed
opportunity.
How do I connect to the zas to someone
outside of me? How do I how do I relate
right? And the way you relate to me is
the way you can relate to yourself. The
way you relate to yourself is where it
starts with you from within you. The
part of you that you connect to relates
